I'm wondering what happened to people I knew back then - I'm Glenys O'Connell, nee Higham. A mousy type so....but Margaret Edwards? Audrey Spence? Yvonne Whalley? Many names I can't remember offhand but would if memory jogged! Be interested to hear from anyone in that year, just for old time's sake!

Hi Glenys and welcome to the forum! I was at Balshaw's from 1958 - 65 so would not normally have recalled any of the names you mention, but Margaret Edwards married my cousin Michael in 1972 and they have four grown-up children, still live locally in Leyland.

Hi,
My name is Geoff Hill and I attended Balshaw's from 1958 to 1965.
I started in form 1A and left from UVI Science. I doubt that many will remember me because I kept a low profile.
I came from Euxton Junior School and was in the same class as Stan Turbitt and Peter Baldwin, but they were a year ahead of me.

I noticed that someone was enquiring about Stan Turbitt. I do know that he was in the police force and was at sometime Coroner's Officer, because he attended the death of one of my uncles many years ago.
